NO to violence against women

For the entire TU community, open to employees and students and externally interested parties

Orange the World is the global campaign against violence against women and girls. TU Delft, in cooperation with the core group Orange the World of the Municipality of Delft, will launch the annual campaign by raising the flag in front of the Auditorium on 25 November 2024, the International Day against Violence against Women. This will take place in the presence of Joëlle Gooijer, alderman of the municipality of Delft and Marien van der Meer, Vice President Operations of TU Delft.

The theme of the Orange the World campaign in the Netherlands this year is ‘Safe, everywhere and always’ and runs until 10 December, International Human Rights Day.

After raising the flag, an event will take place in the Auditorium with Tessel ten Zweege, writer, artist and feminist and Jens van Tricht, idealist, feminist and director of Emancipator. They will make us more aware of violence against women and girls and how we can collectively prevent and stop it.

The entire TU community is invited to attend the flag-raising, come to the event and then continue talking to each other over drinks in the Foyer of the Aula.
